Followed, don't know what game to get. I've had my OnLive account since they began and never played any games on it.

it's cool if you dont have any system to play games on. but the small, very small, very slight lag is pretty noticeable going from a regular game to a streaming service. it's a very cool idea though. they do get a like from me.

Personally I am getting much better service via buying the Onlive console. But yea there is lag. Still a fun system with lots of deals and cheap games popping up.

Also they just sent out an email with this info so hopefully a bunch of people who are members and haven't fanned them fan them

I /liked. About lag, I mean it is there, but as long as you aren't playing counterstrike and whatnot, I've been fine with it.

Its almost like playing a high end computer game on a graphics card that only gets 18 FPS. Thats what I'd compare it too. Although some games are fine. Space marine was surprisingly clear crisp and quick

Remember everyone OnLive is FREE To download to your PC (or mac?) My netbook stuttered like hell but a Goozer/Cag'er here said it worked great on his PC.

The console can be had cheaply with deals here and there (I pre-ordered a game and got it free)

Also if my Wireless Logitech Wheel works on onlive might go for Dirt 3. The system by itself is AT LEAST a great way to Demo games for 30 minutes.

As for making money I'm assuming game Dev's don't care at all about allowing OnLive to sell these games cheap.

1: it emphasizes digital Distro which hurts resale of games (boooo).
2: The companies probably do almost 0 work :porting these games to Onlive"
3: It's a good way for gamers who don't have a PC to buy PC games.

Anyways I assume OnLive if successful enough will be a prime candidate for Amazon to buy or another company. Personally I think its a brilliant idea.
